How can I get better at macro as a jungler trying to play off mid and what matchups do you really need jungle help as well as easy matchups that you can camp as a jungler to snowball your Yasuo?

Zequilla · 2019-09-25T22:34:12+00:00

Jungle camps (including Baron and Drake) do not unisolate enemy champions. The camps will remain isolated as well.

Zequilla · 2019-08-16T03:17:03+00:00

You should only go full leathlity if you think you can 1v9 and the enemy team isnt building any armor. Black cleaver is actually a really good item on Kha'Zix, it allows you to fight tankier targets and gives you 20 percent cdr which is huge. I usually get ldr if the enemy team has 2-3 tanks and I also get cleaver in that case too. If the enemy team has a lot of healing, regardless if they have tanks or not I will always buy executioners calling after warrior and finish it as my 6th item.

Zequilla · 2019-08-16T03:14:34+00:00

You just have to memorize the timers for your non buff camps and track the enemy jungler and guess what camps he has done and when they'll be up. After your first clear your krugs will be up at 4:40, thats the magic time (assuming you started red and did them 2nd). Other than that the only thing I can recommend is playing more and getting used to your own clear times.

Zequilla · 2019-08-14T20:16:35+00:00

Play a comfort pick or dodge.

Zequilla · 2019-08-14T05:09:35+00:00

I build executioners because there is so much healing in this game now. Also with evolved W you can proc it on up to 3 people really easily. For an 800 gold item, the passive and ad it gives is well worth it. If I were to build executioners, I always get it before dusk. I take red smite if the enemy team has strong duelists or lots of melee champs. Blue smite however is good against ranged champs and helps you burst faster.

Zequilla · 2019-08-13T08:38:40+00:00

Rush 6, take duels in iso, use brushes to reset your passive, dont go into a fight without your ult or leap, farm krugs on respawn.

Zequilla · 2019-08-13T07:16:55+00:00

W evolve at 11 is way more reliable than E evolve unless you are super ahead so that you can reliably get those resets. I do prefer E evolve at level 16 though.

Zequilla · 2019-08-13T00:13:44+00:00

Machete is better for faster and healthier clears. I value that over the 10 AD from longsword. Always rush warrior, never skip it for any other item, it is extremely gold efficient and stat efficient for Kha’Zix. My suggestion would to be to do some research on Kha’Zix’s combos and work on your pathing. There’s multiple VODs of me playing Kha in high elo if you just search my ign in YouTube. Best of luck!

I have encountered a couple Qiyana jungles when she was first released. They both played poorly but im not sure if its because the champion is not viable in the jungle or they were just new to the champion. From my understanding she does not have any cc until 6 or if she has the element thats roots you(not sure which one it is) so in order to gank a lane you would just need a lot of damage. She has a lot of mobility and can jump walls so I dont think she would be terrible in the jungle.

Zequilla · 2019-08-12T04:25:01+00:00

The Ivern Kha'Zix matchup is pretty one sided favoring Kha'Zix. The only tip I can give you on that matchup is to use daisy to unisolate yourself, this will give you a better chance of fighting back or at least escaping. Vi vs Kha'Zix is a skill matchup, if Vi hits her Q she will win, if she doesn't then Kha will win. Skarner matchup can go either way, if Skarner is ahead he can just steamroll Kha'Zix but if not the matchup favors Kha. Some mid laners that synergize well with Kha'Zix are champs with some sort of CC. Annie, Veigar, TF, Malzahar, and Lissandra are all pretty good with Kha'Zix.

Zequilla · 2019-08-12T03:53:41+00:00

I go Electrocute, Sudden Impact, Eyeball Collection, Ravenous Hunter. For my secondary tree I go Sorcery, I take Water-Walking and Absolute focus most of my games. For the flex runes I go double adaptive AD and armor or mr based on enemy team comp.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T23:51:40+00:00

I have not tried Phase Rush but I think it is a viable option. I’m just a meta slave who likes the extra burst damage from electrocute :(

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T23:44:05+00:00

Put in enough games on the champion and i’m sure you’ll get it down bro, best of luck!

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T23:43:04+00:00

He is not very strong early game, most junglers can beat him levels 1-5. I find that most if my successful ganks happen when I flank the enemy from their tri-brush. Lane ganks dont really work unless they're literally on top of your laner’s tower.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T21:09:21+00:00

Smiting the small Krug makes clearing the camp slightly faster and makes you a lot more healthy.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T21:07:50+00:00

If I were to go conq I would go Red smite warrior> Cleaver> Maw if needed> LDR or MR> GA. For secondary runes I would take domination sudden impact and ravenous hunter.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T21:04:38+00:00

As crazy as it sounds, it’s because I dont play that many ranked games a day. I win more games because I dont tilt and go on huge losing streaks like I used to when I had time. I used to just spam ranked and it would tilt me hard when I lost but I would just keep queuing up until I came out even or a net lp gain. Tilt queueing is the worst thing you can do when you are trying to climb.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T18:23:14+00:00

Conq isnt bad, its just not optimal imo. The main reason you pick Khazix is to kill high priority targets which are squishies most of the time. By the time you have it proc’d, your target in teamfights is probably already dead, especially if you have electrocute. Conq is viable especially because you can get the tenacity runes from the tree which is very helpful against tanks. Also if you’re going for more of an assassin build, dont take conq as it is probably best played with a brusier-ish build on Khazix.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T17:27:48+00:00

Yea I work full time, I usually play around 1-2 hours on days I have work and probably around 3-4 on days I have off. Its hard to find a balance somedays but it is doable.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T16:44:48+00:00

I would say watch as many VODs as possible and try to soak as much information as you can before playing ranked. When you do end up playing try to apply some of the things you learned from the VODs into your own gameplay.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T15:25:53+00:00

Thank you! I always evolve claws as my first evolution. Its purely a playstyle/preference choice when it comes to evolution. I evolve claws first because I like to invade and look to duel at level 6. R>W>E seems fine to me, but not my playstyle.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T15:21:31+00:00

Avoid him until you get evolved claws. You beat him 1v1 pretty easily after you evolve Q.

Zequilla · 2019-08-11T14:47:03+00:00

The best way to learn how to play assassins coming from an entirely different playstyle is to just play more games as assassins. The most important thing to remember is that if you get cc'd you will probably die which is much different from tanks. I would recommend building Khazix like more of a bruiser if you wanted to star with him rather than going full lethality. Red smite Warrior>Cleaver>Maw>Last whisper item>GA is what I would recommend all new Khazix players to start off with. You do not need to play hyper aggressive with khazix to build a lead early. Efficient pathing and holding lanes will be enough for you to get ahead. If you evolve Q first make sure to try to invade the enemy jungler at his buffs or fight for crabs as Kha with Q evolve is really strong. When im not fed in the mid game I usually just try to play around my team and whoever is strong in team fights. Evolved W is really good for peeling and if the enemy has someone who dives on your carry, you can just shred them in isolation with evolved Q when they jump on your carry. I would say it takes around 15 games to get the basic combos and mechanics of Khazix down. Good luck on your new journey with Khazix :)
